"God Is Dead?"
Song

"God is Dead?" is a song by heavy metal band Black Sabbath featured on the album 13. It is the first single from the album, and the first with Ozzy Osbourne since 1998's "Psycho Man" and "Selling My Soul" from Reunion. It was released via an MP3 download on Amazon.[1] The song was also available as a free download to those who pre-ordered the full album on iTunes. The song in its entirety was posted on the official YouTube channel in promotion of this. The Black Sabbath fansite suggest the song is a collaboration between Osbourne, Iommi, and Butler but that "Geezer Butler wrote all the lyrics". Both the song title and the figure on the single's cover are a reference to Friedrich Nietzsche, a German philosopher who once said that "God is dead".[2]

The song reached number six on the UK Rock Charts.[3]

The music video was released on June 10, 2013 and was directed by Peter Joseph, director of the Zeitgeist film series.[4]
